Dental Crowns

Dental Bridges

A
crown (cap) is a restoration that is placed on teeth that have
lost a lot of their structure. There are various types of
crowns, ranging from full porcelain to full metal. Your dentist
will explain the advantages and disadvantages of each kind for
you.

The process of making a crown includes a number of steps,
beginning with preparing and taking impressions of the
tooth/teeth involved. A temporary crown or bridge is then placed
on your teeth. Meanwhile, the impressions are sent to the lab
where a mold of the teeth is poured and the work begins. The
completed work is sent back to the office; after inspection and
any necessary adjustments, it is cemented onto your teeth.
